Not sure if: your symptoms are side effects of your new medication. It usually takes no more than 1 or 2 days for any drug to clear from your body, but it is a gradual process. Other potential problematic scenariors: Drug metabolites can hang around for longer, tissue drug levels can sometimes take longer than blood levels, any damage that it might have caused can take longer to heal. Consult your doctor.
